Event:Workshop
As climate change intensifies, cities across Europe are increasingly grappling with the Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect. On April 14th, 2025, from 10:00 to 12:30 CEST, Ecologic Institute, together with Roma Capitale's Climate Office and PwC Italy, invites you to an online workshop focused on solutions and strategies to reduce UHI impacts in urban environments.
Rome, like many cities in Southern and Western Europe, is facing significant challenges from climate change, particularly in the form of Urban Heat Islands (UHI). To address these risks, PwC is leading a project funded by the EU's DG REFORM, with the Ecologic Institute playing a key supporting role. This project will develop a detailed UHI risk profile for Rome, integrating data on the city’s demographics, urban layout, transportation systems, and green spaces.
